One Versus One Thousand

We talked this morning in worship about God’s Love.

God’s love is unreasonable.

I had so many thoughts going through my head throughout the entire service. First, the Pastor said, “We don’t love people who don’t love us back”. At first, I agreed. Sure, people who don’t love me, yeah I don’t love them. . . yeah, right. Immediately after I repeated it and wrote it in my notes, I started thinking about the few people that I did love and do love, and even am in love with who might not even have a clue, or if they do, just don’t have the same mutual feelings back. I do love people who don’t love me back. And for some crazy reason, I can’t help it.

A lot of times I think about how I wish I could change my feelings; that maybe I could just replace those feelings that I’ve felt for a long time. Who knows. All I do know is that there are some people I love that I love being around and spending time with, and then there are people that I love that I just wish could change their ways. . . but that’s def a word we call hopeless.

Why is it that our love can’t be unreasonable? True love, I really believe is unreasonable. But this junk we call love now, one mistake and you’re mad at “love” and then ruin it. I’m so grateful that I am a child of a Father that loves me, a dirty, ragged sinner, more than anything else, no matter what.

God’s love is tough love sometimes.

Consequences come with poor decisions. We are allowed to make our own decisions and choices, but every one of those decisions and choices are followed by a consequence. Whether or not it’s a good consequence depends on our actions and the choice we made.

I think that the people we choose to define our life by are either good choices or bad choices. . . .who cares what other people think? If you love it, and you know its worth it, go for it. At least make the choice, rather than going by without making any choices or decisions. Always better to make a decision than to let all of them pass you by. Don’t be stagnant. . .I’m learning. That never leads to any explosion, whether good or bad, it’s a learning experience that’s worth learning from.

God’s love is unconditional.

The only love that is unconditional. If you don’t know this amazing Father I talk of, def ask me, cause you will never find another true LOVE like this one.

Anyway, the rest of the random ideas floating in my mind. . .

Th song by Duncan Shiek – Barely Breathing.

Sometimes you just wanna drop a water balloon off a roof onto someone. . . even if it only makes you feel better for a second.

You wait by the phone. . . even for a text.

Is it being lonely? Is it a crush on an idea? Or are you really crazy about that person?

You ever realize how much one small thing can impact you or even everyone around you?

Playing with Levi makes my heart happy. He loves me no matter how mad I get at him.

I miss my best friends. Bad. But I know they are where they are supposed to be. But I also guarantee I cry a lot.

1 vs. 1000. One with the one you truly care about vs 1000 with the jokers you think you care about.

Okay, I’m done for now.

Fabulous.
